Today's second bottle is 😏😏😏😏! I had a first taste of it a long time ago and raved about its cost-effectiveness and lack of name recognition (you can buy it anytime and it's delicious)...Junmai Ginjo Harugasumi✨ from Kyuyo Masamune in Kumamoto Prefecture! Ha... 😦I found myself back to Kyushu sake again 💦. Something seems to be attracting me quite a bit lately 😓 lol Well, I'll leave it at that....I've been curious about Kyushu Sake for a while now, and I noticed that they've added a new Spring Sake, so I brought it to my house 😆. I opened the bottle immediately: ❗️ The aroma is not that strong 🤔. I think it has a good balance of sweetness, umami, and bitterness 😆 from the beginning to the end 👌 But I would like to comment on the dryness of the taste, it may be a bit lacking compared to the Junmai Kyuyo which I drank for the first time 😓. It has a beautiful taste, but if you ask me if it's notably different from other sake breweries... I don't really feel it 💦(maybe I just don't have a good palate). Then I remembered I forgot to stir it while drinking it, so I stirred it and drank it again 🍶. It tastes better now lol! Lesson learned, you have to stir the orikara-mi! It's 👌👌. Day 2🗒️ The feeling of cleanness has increased 😁. But on the other hand, it also feels less distinctive 💦.

I'm in tired mode after working overtime this week 😭 For recovery ❤️‍🩹... need to heal ourselves 🏥❗️ And so... 😆 (yeah) Weekend's annual opening ceremony 🍶✨ It's been a while since I've had a lot of sake from Kyushu... so this is Aomori's Tasake 🌾😁. When I opened the bottle, the ginjo aroma was quite strong and fruity, like apples ✨. It's one of those that gets you excited before you even drink it ⤴️🥰 And then...take a sip... 😌! A harmony of sweetness and umami in the mouth 🎶. A little bitterness at the end, but the taste is just right🙆. The finish is exquisite, neither sharp nor long lasting, with a taste that will linger 😘. Speaking of Tasake...I personally have an image of it as a delicious food sake 😋, but this one seems to be more suitable for before and after dinner 👌👌. Well, what happens tomorrow ⁉️😁 ps...it's been a long time since I've had a Tasake Tokujun 😓😓... Day 2🗒️ The ginjo aroma is still the same, I'm grinning the moment I open it😍 lol I think it has more umami than yesterday 🤔❓ It tastes juicy and fresh 👌.

Busy week at work this week...working overtime 😭 Decided my screaming body needed some healing water, so.......opened a bottle of the classic Uguisu sake from the garden 🍶. Upon opening the bottle, you can smell the soft and fluffy aroma 😌. The first sip is crisp, dry, and dry...it's almost like a Japanese version of Asahi's "Sou Fat Dry" 🤔. However, it's not a draft or sparkling 🫧 so it's refreshing 💧. I guess it's positioned as a food drink 😃. It's not strong in character, it doesn't interfere with the food, and it tastes like ......, so it's not too bad or too bad 😓. I'm drinking it by itself, so it might be a waste... I think it's great for izakaya menu 🏮 like yakitori 👌 In general, it has a traditional sake feel 🍶 and a dry, light taste ❗️ ps. not for those who want something fruity😅. Day 2🗒️ No change in taste...on the contrary, it gives the impression of a stable dry taste 😁.

Second bottle today... 😍 I'll give you the pub variation even though I'm home at the earliest 🍶 lol From Kumamoto's birthplace...❗️ It's been quite a while since I've had a bottle of Niimasa Ecru ✨. The aroma is not that strong ❓ but it has a nice fruity aroma 🤔. I remember it was like this 💧. And then I took a sip 😁. It tastes like a fruity raspberry 🍇 with a piquancy feeling 😌. It has a nice sharpness and I can see why it is the best sake 😂. It's been a while since I've had this, but I still feel like it's Shinsei. In general, Shinsei brews a fruity, fruit-like flavor that is easy to drink 👌. My only complaint is the price 😭. However, among such Shinmasa, this Colors Ecru is priced at 2,000 yen ❗️, thank you very much 🙏. I mean, the problem is that you can never buy it at the regular price because it is difficult to obtain individually in the first place... 💧. I personally wish that Shinsei would sell them in a way that better suits our needs... 🤔 Day 2: 🗒️ Less pizzazz but slightly more flavor 🤔Raspberry-ness is stable 👌

Today is my second daughter's graduation ceremony 🎓. She will be a junior high school student from April... it's early 😅 In the Chugoku area where I live, there are no stores that carry it and I can't get it... 🥺. I've never had it and I've always wanted it, but I finally got my wish and got it the other day 😭. Even though it's obligatory... it's perfect to open on this happy day ❗️ So now it's time to ‼️Sake no Wa Kumamoto Prefecture's top ranking sansho☺️ When I opened the bottle, the aroma was not as strong as I expected? The aroma is not as strong as I thought it would be 🤔...but I can feel the refreshing sourness 🤔. I took a sip.... ........., ‼️ This....feels more like sparkling wine white🍾 than sake🥰. Just the right amount of lemon🍋 acidity and light sparkling🫧 pizzazz ❗️ This is probably closer to the sourness of Sentori than any other sake I've tasted 😍. Sentori is a refreshing sake, but Sanchi is a bit more carbonated with a little bit of carbonation 👌👌 I've added it to my favorite brands in a while 🤩... but when is the next one? I wonder when I can buy it again 😭. I may have to go to the brewery to buy it at the earliest! LOL! Oh no...I almost passed out 💧. Day 2: ❗️ It's been upgraded from schwah to sizzle😱! This is too good ❤️

Finally, a Friday treat✨! Today...when I was in Fukuoka the other day with my daughter, I was looking for some rare sake at a liquor store...I bought this sake 🍶 because there was only one bottle left and there were only a few ❗️ available at Sake no Wawa check-in ☑️ I will have a bottle of Tama Izumi for the first time 😋. I did some research... this is Ohga Sake Brewery, Fukuoka's oldest sake brewery founded in 1673😳. This is the first TAMA series to appear in the market 😁. I haven't had the normal one to begin with, so I can't compare 😅. The aroma is mild and you can taste the umami of the rice 😌. As you take a sip, you can taste the beautiful flavor of Yamadanishiki, and the moderate bitterness and umami will keep your cup going 😁The spiciness and bitterness are relatively low and the sharpness is also good 👌I can hardly feel the piquancy of the raw sake 🤔. In general, I have the impression that it's a food sake 🍶 that doesn't choose what to eat 🍶. ‼️ Well, how will it change tomorrow 😆. Day 2! It didn't change much, for better or worse 😅I guess it got a little more umami ❓🤔. I still think this flavor would go well with meat dishes 👌

The second one today is... it's a weekday, but I have the day off with pay, so in order to recharge my motivation for tomorrow, I'm going to go for my favorite, because the greenbrier in the garden I just mentioned is not enough for me 😆 lol I kept it in the fridge....Jikin's Senbon Nishiki 🌾 is now open 😁. I was a little cautious about opening the bottle since the other day's immobility, but I was able to open it with no problem by using the outer cork and then the inner cork 😅. And if you open the bottle, you can already find it at ....... Please forgive me for opening it on a weekday 🙇. I'm sorry for opening it even though it's a weekday.... As you may have guessed, Sakegawa users, it has a strong, fruity ginjo aroma 🥰. One sip and you'll imagine "ah, this is what heaven must be like..." as the flavor runs through your body. It's hard to tell, so I'll comment seriously: ❗️🫡 I imagine that it starts out like a 100% apple fruit juice, and then disappears with a hint of the fermented piquancy of the raw sake. Mmmm, delicious ‼️😋 After all, Jikin is just what they are promoting, right? No doubt about it... 😍 We'll see what happens tomorrow ⁉️ I'm sure you'll be begging for more 😆 Day 2 notes: 🗒️ Irregular overtime work fatigue will be gone... the fainting deliciousness 😵. The pizzazz is gone, but on the contrary, the deliciousness has surged⤴️ the same level of fainting when you take off🛫 in a fighter plane😰🥰 taste 😰🥰.

Today... a seasonal sake that I got on the road 🍶. We opened a bottle of Hanabie, a garden-eating sweetbreads 😁. When the bottle is opened, it has a moderate ginjo aroma 🤭. The first sip shows a fruity taste with a harmonious blend of spiciness and bitterness 🤔. The aftertaste is more bitter than spicy 😭. The taste is a little different from what I imagined, but... it's good in the sense that it can be a good food wine 👌👌. The sparkling wine that I reported on for the first time last time tasted very similar to wine 🍷 rosé, so I thought it would be close, but it was a completely different story 😱. This one tastes like sake 🍶 lol I got another Uguisu this time, so I'll report it later 😆. For now ❗️ Looking forward to tomorrow's taste change as always✨ But...since it's fire-entering, there might not be that big of a change? 😅 Second day report: 🗒️ I think the ginjo aroma has increased from the first day✨ And the most important thing is the taste... most sakes tend to have more umami than the first day 🤔. But...! This one tastes lighter, with the same umami and less bitterness than the first day 😆. This taste change was strange and unexpected 😌.

I'm on the road today... from my hotel room instead of home😅 I opened a bottle of Yokoyama Jungin, Nama-zume Sake 🍶, which is not a No.4 bottle, so it's not a full bottle ✨. The aroma is sweet and alcoholic, something I've never really felt before 🤔. The first sip is just as sweet and sour as the aroma, with just the right amount of alcohol and a nice sharpness 😆. It's delicious 🤤. It can be served by itself or as a food sake (more like a fish drink) 😋. Unfortunately... it's 300ml so I drank it all up and couldn't report on the taste change 😰. ps, I was out of town and didn't have a sake cup...this might be the first time I drank it in a mug 😓.

It's Thursday... but I'm tired and can't wait for tomorrow to open the bottle 😆 lol. Today is my first time drinking Shichida from Saga prefecture ❗️ There is a label warning to open the bottle ⚠️... but I had no problem at all with this sake 😅. I was cautious because of the recent immobility incident lol. Well, when I opened the bottle... a nice aroma like melon ✨. When I take a sip of the supernatant, I can feel the sweetness, weak bitterness, and a little strong alcohol (16% alcohol by volume), but it's well balanced 😘The piquancy of the raw sake comes gradually in the second half and the aftertaste 👌. And the second cup after stirring is the most enjoyable part of Orikagara-mi: ❗️ (photo 📷 is after stirring) The alcoholiness is a little more pronounced than before 😱. The flavor and sweetness of the rice has been added and the taste has become milder 🥰. I feel this change is the way to enjoy orikarami 💖. The price is very reasonable 🙆. And what kind of taste change will happen tomorrow... more fun 😌! Day 2 note: 🗒️ When you open the bottle, you can smell the sake-like aroma of sake ⤴️ when I drank it... it evolved to taste exactly like that 😆. It's a little bit bitter now... so if you like fruity things, you might not like it 😅. Well, I like it 🤣.

First open bottle 🍶. It is Chiyomusubi from Tottori 😁. This one was bought by an acquaintance who bought it from a direct-sale store. It is sold mainly at direct-sale stores and the distribution volume seems to be small 🤔. It seems 🤔. When you open the bottle, the aroma is not that strong, but when you take a sip, you can feel the deep flavor of the rice aroma from the pure rice 🌾. ☺️ It is a good old-fashioned sake with little bitterness and a good aftertaste 😌. However, it is easy to drink because it does not have a harsh taste that makes your throat burn like the sake❗️ I drink it cold, but it also tastes great heated as a mid-meal drink ✨. I feel like it has a complete flavor...so I doubt it will change much 🤔. but I'm sure I'll enjoy it tomorrow as well 😆. Day 2: ❗️ I was going to warm up the sake, but the stove was out when I got home... so I went with cold sake💦. I think it tasted more spicy than I expected (or maybe it was my imagination?). I think the spiciness has increased. It's just the right amount of sweet and spicy for a mealtime drink 😌.

To start off March, we selected our favorite brand "Hiran"...Nikkomaru QUEEN👑✨! The aroma is moderately fruity with a hint of ginjo, but not too strong 🤔. The first sip has a clear, clean sweetness and umami, and the piquancy of the unpasteurized sake is a little chili on the tongue 😆. The aftertaste is also very sharp without any bitterness🙆. In general, it tastes like a sake like "Hiran", but considering the balance between price and taste... I felt that "Nikomaru Nama" which I drank before has the best balance of the taste of edible rice called Nikomaru🌾😁 (price is about 1, 000 yen difference). (Price difference is about 1,000 yen) The "Nikkomaru" has a more clear and transparent taste because it is polished...but on the other hand, it seems to take away the good taste of "Nikkomaru", which is a waste of money 😭. Personally, I prefer the rice to have a little bit of the tang that only edible rice can have 😊. However... it's just a matter of taste, and it's still delicious lol I guess my personal best in the most recent Jiran is Kagura 🥰. On the second day, the beautiful flavor is slightly more beautiful because it was originally a very polished QUEEN 😘. Not that big a change in taste, it's a stable taste 😊.

Another exciting ☺️ Friday this week 😁. Well, today we have our favorite brand, Hiran... but a brand I've never tried before, Fudo🍶. While reading the warning ⚠️ to open the bottle, in less than 10 seconds of opening the outer bottle and going to the trash... the inner bottle blew up with a nice sound like a Chammery at Christmas 🤣... but I was lucky. But I'm lucky it didn't spew 😅. Now, I got myself back on track and smelled the ginjo aroma... sweet aroma like melon🍈🤤. It's a bit of a dry sake, so I'm going to try the top ✨. From the first sip, it has a sweetness and a piquancy that is characteristic of nama-shu 🫧 It's not strongly carbonated, but has just the right amount of bubbles 👍. It has just the right amount of bitterness and a not-too-bitter aftertaste 🥰. The second cup is stirred 🤩 (see photo 📷 before and after stirring). The flavor increased dramatically and the drinking experience was much more enjoyable 😍. Definitely prefer it stirred 🫶. To be honest, I didn't imagine that Chiba, where I'm from, has good sake...so I didn't expect this 😅 lol I'm curious to see how it tastes tomorrow ⁉️ Day 2 notes: 🗒️ Oh no...the umami and sweetness are greatly increased 🆙. It's really tasty😍Although it's a brand called Fudo...it seems to move in a delicious direction when it comes to taste ✨.

I'm putting pressure on the fridge, so I'm going to violate a weekday taboo and open the bottle again 😅. This is a limited edition sake that my favorite brand Kamo Kanehide🍶 puts out this time of year🌸... ‼️ Actually, it's not the same as the one sold wholesale at liquor stores, but was sold only at a direct sales event the other day 😁. The difference is the labeling "Open Caution ⚠️ Raw" ✨. Unlike the regular shipment... the oli is much darker 🤩 and you can see it's fermenting even before the bottle is opened 🥰. But let's get the preamble out of the way.... I thought...I had to fight for 3 minutes while suppressing the spewing 🤛 Please refer to the photo for a sense of the schwarziness lol Well, I guess my hard work paid off... the fruity aroma of ginjo and the pithiness of the first sip... it's more of a schwarziness 😆. It's more dry than sweet, so it's a good beer 🍺 substitute 😋. I drank the regular version at the event, but this one is still stronger 💪. I guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow to see how sweet and tasty it is 🥰. Day 2 📖. The dryness is a little less, but it's still there 🫧The sweetness and the flavor have increased 😆 Personally, I like the second day better 😆.

The "Takashi" from Aichi that I posted before was quite tasty... so I was curious and bought the second one, this one is called Harukageiro ☘️😆. It's been cold for a long time this year and it hasn't warmed up yet, but I've opened it 😂. This one...in a word... "delicious😋". That's all anyone can say, so I'll spell it out in a little more detail: ‼️ When you open the bottle, you can smell the fruity ginjo aroma ✨green apple? Green apple 🍎 grape? Well, that's it, that's the "this is delicious..." aroma you get before you drink it 😉. The first sip, the piquancy of the sake is quite thin, but the umami and sweetness come through from the very beginning...and the sharpness is excellent with almost no bitterness ✨. But if you are looking for pichi or shuwa, it might be a little lacking😅 Day 2 report 📖. The sweetness and umami taste deepens and evolves into an unstoppable flavor 🤩It's so delicious that you can drink it up like apple juice 😅. Takashi no Tsukasa is not to be underestimated: ‼️

Weekend 🌃 makes my heart sing ❗️...simply because of the timing of drinking. lol Well, I've been saving my Hall of Fame brand "Jigokin" in the fridge, missing the opportunity to open it for a long time... It's about time to open it ❗️ and took out the "Nigori Sake Nama 🍶" from the various stocks I have in the fridge 😁. It had been stored for a while since I got it, so it must have aged a little ⁉️... I had a hard time opening the bottle😅. Every time I open it a little, the sake almost overflows with the aroma 😱 (see picture 📷) The fizziness is amazing 🥰, on the same level as the Machida brewery I opened the other day. And the aroma is green apple🍏 sour✨. One sip and the aroma and umami... sweetness, pizzazz of the raw sake... it's a big circus in the mouth 😆. I can't stop drinking this one 👍. Compared to the Machida Shuzo that I was drinking yesterday and the day before, the taste is similar, but Machida's is drier and more effervescent: 🙂‍↕️ I opened the bottle and the fizziness was so strong that the oli was stirred up quite a bit... I was hoping to enjoy the difference with just the top clear... but it's really delicious and I can't stop 😋. Day 2! The pizzazz has gone down a bit but still going strong😁. More sweetness ⤴️ Personally, the second day is the best 🥰.

When the sake breweries start shipping out the fresh sake every day... we tend to buy more and before we know it, our fridge is full 😨. So....even though it's a weekday, I have no choice but to open the fridge, so I'm going to break a taboo and open the fridge 😆. It's been a while since I've had a bottle of Machida Shuzo 🍶 Miyamanishiki🌾 nigori ❗️ As the note ⚠️ says... it didn't blow up when I slowly opened the bottle, but it smelled like melon🍈 in the air with a very fizzy feeling🫧😍 (the schwag (2) feeling is awesome as you can see in the picture! The sweetness of the melon is more apparent in the first sip than in the taste, which is more like a refreshing Sue Fat Dry 😊The texture is much more tingling + dry than sweet 👌. It's been a while since I've had a sake with a very strong fizzy feeling 🍶. If it's after a bath in the summer, it's definitely going to be gone in a blink of an eye 🤣. However, I feel like it's not as sweet as it smells when you open it, so there might be that gap😅. The fizziness is quite strong, so on the contrary, I think it would taste better if it calmed down a bit after tomorrow 😌. Looking forward to it again tomorrow: ❗️ Day 2 report 📖. I still feel the fizziness 🫧 on the second day because the original was so strong, but I think it has calmed down a little 😁, and there is more flavor and sweetness 🥰 on the second day. Personally I prefer the 2nd day 😘.

Today's second bottle is Kitayuki from Sado Island in Niigata Prefecture: ☃️ Last time I drank Kitayuki for the first time... I had a personal image of it as the best sake for a meal 🍶 with its sharp taste even with oily food such as yakitori🐔. I was excited to open a bottle of the draft sake, as my personal image of Kitayuki was firmly established: ☺️ As expected, the aroma is only faintly noticeable since it is a less polished junmai (pure rice). It is not very strong. And when you take a sip, you can hardly feel the piquancy of the raw sake... but...! Hmmm! 😳 While feeling the sweetness on the tongue, when swallowed, it has a complex interplay of bitterness, moderate spiciness, and sharpness like a dry 🍺 throat, which is also... delicious 😋. I think even those who are exclusively beer drinkers will be satisfied with the taste. ❗️ I think Hokusetsu can be used as a food wine, and can be drunk in place of beer 👌👌. I have a strong image of Shinzawa Brewery who brews Hakurakusei and Atago no Matsuri when it comes to food sake...but I like Hokusetsu because of its different taste 😁. ps. I'm drinking it in a wine glass for the sake of drinking, but I recommend a boar's mouth 🍶 lol I'm going to report on the second day! The dry bitterness that I felt on the first day is lessened and the umami is slightly increased ⬆️ 😁. This is pretty good ✨

Well, well, well! Hwagane finally arrived 😏 (dead language at the earliest...lol) The second edition of our Hiran Festival held from the previous week: ❗️ Tonight, we're opening a bottle of Kagura's unfiltered raw 🍶😍. I've already had the hi-iri in my past reviews, but this is my first time drinking the raw 🥰. Now it's time to open the bottle! And what do you think... it already has a gorgeous, fruity, apple-like ginjo aroma ✨. I can tell it's delicious by the aroma before I even drink it 😅I'm sure all of you sakewa users can relate to this! LOL! ...and then a sip, and you can feel the sharpness of the sake (see picture) on your tongue 👅 while the clear apple soda water-like flavor rushes through you 🏃‍♂️‍➡️ with a wonderful sharp aftertaste 🔪. Well, well...I'm just going to be intoxicated by the level of deliciousness again 🤪. Mmmm, seriously delicious 😋😋. I wish I could tell someone about this taste... 😅 Aside from that, it looks like we're going to make another flying lran breakthrough this year: ❗️ I'll be super excited for tomorrow's flavor change as well 😆 lol Day 2ooooo🗒️ I think the pizzazz has decreased a bit, but it's still going strong😍and the umami has improved⤴️ I love how the umami improves, it's something that only sake can do 😊.

Hi Jay & Nobby 😁. You can tell by the aroma before you drink it - like, "...oh, this is a delicious one 😍" 😆. I think you can fully enjoy the taste of Yamadanishiki 🌾 in Kagura 😊. Just beware of drinking it up 😆 lol

Yesterday's Kaze no Mori🌳 was consumed in one day because of the lesson learned from the last time I drank it... so today I'm drinking my favorite sake brewery's Hiran🤩! I've been stocking up on all kinds of Hiran... so from now on, every weekend will be a Hiran festival 🎉 for a while 🤣. I noticed that the Sake no.1 app is now ranked number 1 in Nagasaki Prefecture ✨I myself drank it once... and now I can't live without it anymore 😂laughs I'm sorry for the long preamble, but we opened a bottle of "Rinne Tensei" today 🍶. When I opened the bottle, I could smell the fruity aroma with a nice spontaneous sound 😁. The first sip has a piquant, raspberry-like sour taste with a slight bitterness and a nice sharpness👍. I think I might feel a little bit of alcohol in the aftertaste. It is more for before and after meals than during meals 🥰. And check out the oli settling at the bottom of the bottle: ❗️ Stirred and had a second glass 😍(see picture for changes). Bitterness is a bit less and more mild ‼️ I personally prefer to drink it stirred 😊. Speaking of Hiran, the taste change after the second day is also quite promising, so I'll hold out and hope for tomorrow so I don't finish it on the first day😅. Day 2 + stirring✨ More flavor ⬆️, same piquancy, less bitterness, I like it a lot 😁.
